UsesMicrobiological fouling of plastic materials is an unwanted nuisance and a problem in many household and industrial environments. The humid and highmoisture environments where plastic materials are often used provide excellent growth environments for unwanted microorganisms such as mold, fungi, and mildew. In addition to degrading and fouling plastic materials, these microorganisms can cause unsightly stains and unpleasant odors. Calcium pyroborate has been employed in various plastic materials that contain a microbicidally effective amount of calcium pyroborate that protects plastic materials from microbiological attack. It is also used in fungicidal and corrosion inhibiting paint pigments.

Preparation methods

PreparationCalcium pyroborate has the molecular formula of Ca2B2O5, it can be prepared by the reaction of: 2CaCl2 (solid) + 2H2BO3 (solid) + heat →Ca2B2O5 + 4HCl (gas)
